Top of 35 Ton Bronze Dome of Harrison Planetarium

It was for the special SPA Greenwich event.  

After setting off from Kent early, I reached Greenwich and parked on Crooms Hill with plenty of the time for the 9.45am (sharp – “latecomers will not be admitted”) start to the show.

The presentation was given by Tony Sizer – it was a very interesting and visually stunning, look at the Night Sky.

The highlight for me, was the “Trip to the Southern Hemisphere”.

The whole audience got to view the constellation of Crux, the nearest stars to our own  Sun – Proxima, Alpha and Beta Centauri – plus the Larger and Smaller Magellanic Clouds.  All without leaving our seats!

Good fun and informative.
